More information
Through her coaching practice she primarily helps:
- professionals in midlife-transition, bounce back from feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, scattered, depressed or unfulfilled – to feeling more alive and aligned to the life they long for, so that they can make the positive impact they were meant to make.
- baby boomers with weight issues – bounce back from weight-imposed limited living – to live light in body and spirit – re-owning their thin self by addressing the underlying causes of emotional eating.
She attributes her personal energy to living foods – based on her book: ALIVE on RAW – get your body and energy back!
Aligned with what she teaches that ‘Everything is Energy’ – Deborah applies her own personal power and physical energy to give back.
On 16 and 17 June 2012 she completed the 240km Bike Ride from Vancouver to Seattle as part of a fundraiser to support the BC Cancer Foundation’s Ride to Conquer Cancer. And she had tons of energy to spare at the end of the ride. What helped her make the distance? She says she was ‘powered by love and fruit! And of course the appropriate training!”


For more than two decades Deborah has served in various roles including that of Organizational Development Consultant, Speaker, Management Trainer, Leadership Development Adviser and certified Integral Life Coach. She has worked with clients on three continents, in the for-profit and not-for-profit sectors, and in a variety of industries, including financial services and healthcare.
She draws strength from the Christian faith and is highly respectful of all other faiths and never imposes her beliefs on others.
As dance is one of her medium’s of self-expression, Deborah on occasion expresses worship through freestyle, Spirit-led dance that engages her body-mind-soul-and-spirit. It’s the form of worship she felt called to at the age of nineteen. And that’s a story she’ll share in a future e-book that she is currently working on, namely, ‘What came because I asked – true stories of super-natural connection.’
Deborah shares her life with Dene, her closest friend, business partner and multi-talented author-musician-coach-speaker-photographer-second-husband of nearly two decades. She and Dene are very proud of their four grown-up sons.
Having emigrated to Canada in 2000, from South Africa, she and Dene now live in beautiful British Columbia – and they are proudly Canadian!
